a short name derived mechanically from the scores on the four
dimensions; a two-letter code (e.g., Ur for non-suburban) indicates
a standard deviation from the mean of .5 to 1 ; a two-letter code
preceded by V (e.g., VWe for very well-off) indicates a standard
deviation from the mean of greater than 1
